The Battlefront team have also confirmed that the Rogue One themed DLC content will arrive this holiday in time for the new cinematic release.

This fourth expansion pack will also grant players access to two new playable hero characters, which have already been confirmed as Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones main character from the film) and Imperial Military Director Dir. Orson Krennic.

Although not confirmed, fans are hoping that the artwork used to promote Rogue One, of rebel troopers storming a beach, will the main location used when the DLC does launch later this year.

Since the reveal earlier this year, Sony's Vice president of marketing John Koller sat down for a interview with Fortune to discuss Battlefront's PlayStation VR game and said it could be a "killer app" for the system.

"We are working with EA, DICE, Lucasfilm, and Disney to try and make that experience something so special and so intrinsic to what's in many people's DNA, which is, 'How can I be in that world of Star Wars?'" Koller said.

"Battlefront is going to be one of those games that will really show gamers what it means to be in the world of VR.

It's very special. And just by the nature of it being designed as a VR experience, it's going to be very different than the PlayStation 4 game."
